Review of Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz - 15.4" TFT by HungryHungarian

Advantages: High speed, gorgeous, and easy to use
Disadvantages: Price, operating temperature

...I tell you this because Apple try to "screw you over" somewhat, as they offer three different models of the MBP. Let me explain. There are two versions of the 15.4" model, the second one having a 2.5GHz processor and a 250GB hard drive. The other difference you might notice if you look closely is that the processor cache size is 6MB not 3MB. Six is a bigger number than three, so the smaller one must be rubbish! This difference had me confused for ...
...anyway. That's enough gratuitous Apple bashing for now, I think. Most Apple products are expensive, but in this case I believe it really is worth it. All the applications are fast to run. It boots up quickly, shuts down quicker, and goes to sleep (and wakes up again!) in a well behaved manner. I've never had any problems with it running slowly, or even crashing for that matter. It comes with 2GB of RAM, which is plenty. If, like me, you can't bear ... Read review

portability at a price!
Review of Sony VAIO TZ21WN/B - Core 2 Duo U7500 1.06 GHz - 11.1" TFT by techno_man_37

Advantages: portable
Disadvantages: expensive

This sony VAIO TZ21MN/B is a new one not only from sony but also from there range of seriously ultra portable laptops. The features this has for a laptop of its size is great compared to any laptop and its also so portable its unbelievable it really is a technical persons dream. If I had to describe its looks in a few words I think id choose cool, sleek and elegant. It really is a thin and also thin looking laptop and its cool black shell colour ...
...on this laptop is reasonable, it has 1gb which runs the laptop pretty fast, also its intel core 2 duo T7700 which is one of the newest processors makes this laptop run so fast. Another thing to note is that this processor runs at speeds like 1.2 Ghz. There has recently been an increase in ultra portable laptops and even pc tablets too, and this is what this laptop can be used as seen as its that small. A big contender coming in the market recently ... Read review

A lean machine
Review of Toshiba Portege R500-100 - Core 2 Duo U7600 1.2 GHz - 12.1" TFT by st.v1

Advantages: Weight, battery, screen
Disadvantages: FIngerprint software

...power), and the keyboard. Toshiba has packaged the machine well, with a handy set of utilities, such as HDD protection (although this can be annoying when you're on a bumpy train - even if it is doing its job), the ConfigFree software (with its quick connect to different networks, wireless and Bluetooth connectivity), and power saving options. Switching between monitors and Digital TVs (if they are fitted with a PC connection) shows that the graphics ...
...although the Realtek audio mixer is basic. The touchpad drove me to distraction until I found how to turn it off while I typed - it's software is too clever by half and leads to the cursor jumping around the screen as you type. The big thing you need to be aware of is, paradoxically, using the fingerprint reader software for anything than basic passwords. DO NOT BE TEMPTED TO USE IT TO PROTECT FILES. If there's a glitch that stops the TrueSuite software ... Read review

Good one but can be improved
Review of HP Compaq Business Notebook 2510p by tommitra

Advantages: Weight
Disadvantages: Price

The memory capacity is good but would be better with 2 G B. The weight is OK my laptop weighs 1.5 kg so is far better. A company came out with flash drive memory. I think it is faster. The company also claimed the same. They said it was about 33 percent faster. It does makes a difference. I dont know if it is available in India. I would surely like to own one. There should be some means of payment by installment so that students with monetary problems ... Read review

Value? Hmmm
Review of Fujitsu Siemens LifeBook S7110 Value - Core Duo T2500 2 GHz - 14.1" TFT by lhudson23

Advantages: Extremly long battery life.
Disadvantages: Not as light as a laptop can be. Very expensive.

The laptop itself is a very good one, and unless you need a laptop for anything really specific, such as 'hardcore' gaming, or for downloading films, music, tv programsthen it will suit all your needs. It has a goos sized hard-drive and R.A.M. I have found the battery time, like many laptops, has reduced by quite a lot over the time I have had it, now lasting little over an hour after being fully charged, and that is having had the laptop about a ...
...had lighter laptops and I have found on longer journeys or while carrying the laptop with me in a bag it is actually a fairly major problem compared to laptops such as the Apple laptops. The S7110 seems a little over-priced. I can't really see what more you are getting for your money than you would having brought another laptop. Overall - reasonable. ... Read review
